weather neurosis

Frank, calm doon.

My best mate, since we were boys at school with Tiger Cubs, is also called Frank. He has a Thruxton and a gs, both on sorn over the winter. He also has a Honda xr600 for riding out with me in the winter. It's a very useful bike with a big tank, he's been to Africa on it, but you'd never guess. Because he is so hung up on the weather, even checks the forecast before he goes out, as though he was going sailing rather than riding a motor bike. I keep telling him to just ride the bloody things. We'll a' be deid one day, so who needs a bike to last forever?

ps. remember 'The man in the white suit'? The 50s movie with Alec Guinness where he invents a suit from yarn that never blemishes nor wears out neither. Caused havoc:
